I am not sure what all the criticisms are for. Decent hotel 5 minutes walk from the beach, friendly staff at the front desk, warm water in the shower each night. Neighborhood was not run down as people stated. Not super elegant but suited me just fine for a couple days.

If you like the noise and the vehicle echo from the street; or you like the kids screaming, or you like could not sleep well at night, you will like this hotel. I have asked changed room from the front but have been denied in a rude way. Therefore we suffered for 8 days&nights.

I can't leave a detailed review as we only used this hotel as a cheap and convenient 1 night stay before leaving for the airport. It was exactly that. The room we had was basic and had a very strong chemical smell but we got used to it through the night. Pay close attention to the room you're booking because I honestly thought I'd booked a completely different type with a kitchenette and outside window due to pictures on the booking but after closely reading the booking I did in fact book the quadruple room that only had one tiny window at the top of the wall and the other full sized window in the room looked out into the hotel hallway. Obviously not an issue for our one night but we would have been very disappointed had we booked our entire vacation here. It's a small thing but we were really grateful that they allowed us to store our bags in a locker after check-out for free as we had a night flight so didn't want to have to lug our bags to the beach and keep an eye on them all day. For the price of the place and the great location we didn't have any need to complain!

Prooerty was not great but fine. Only time i talked to the staff they were very helpful but they weren't overly friendly. The towels were old and the ceiling fan was filthy. I liked the location. 5 min walk to the beach and 5 th ave also.

This was a nice hotel as for walking to the beach and attractions in the area like 5th ave. The one thing I didn’t like is that the room really needed black out or thicker curtains as my room shared windows with the hallway and the opaque curtains did nothing to shield the hallway lights from beaming into my eyes at night. Overall the place was clean, and I would stay there again.

From the moment we checked in this place was terrible. Lady at the front desk was extremely rude. The room advertised fridge in room which is the main reason we got this room and there wasnt one. When we went downstairs to ask she said it was an error with expedia not them. Also the door lock to our room was broken and the soap dispenser didnt work. Book elsewhere

Close to Main Street but quiet. A bit expensive for what they offer. Will need and upgrade on bed sheets and towels as they are old, and not so clean. This is one of the very few hotels that offers hot water.

Good on the budget. Note no cold water was available most days. Staff is friendly. Downtown is noisy and there is some noise in the hotel as well from everyone, but gets better at night.

It is a 5 minute walk to the beach and there is so much good food by. In the heart of everything and a great price. The water pressure is the only downside to this place. I will stay here again many times.

The property was ok it had a little smell but it was ok because we just went to sleep stayed out most of the time. Door knobs needs to be fix my son got stuck in the rest room numerous of times, the toilet wouldn’t flush that good . Staff would clean they did . It was a comfortable decent room slept good but , the staff in the morning they wouldn’t greet not a good morning not at all polite the only one at night was very nice beyond great service was the young lady yudith chatu I asked questions about around the area concerning transportion areas to go around there she was so nice every day I would see her with a smile I didn’t have to give her. Anything, while the other staff ladies were more like they expect something because they were not to courteous they would sit down have there coffee cookies talking to one another among themselves which is fine but it was a lil uncomfortable. Other than that I want to thank u papagayo for having us there I was ok comfortable it made it easy to get around walking

It’s a pretty honest and budget friendly hotel. If you need a safe and cheap place to sleep, I would recommend Pousada Papagayos. It’s 2 blocks away from the Main Street/beach which allows you to be in the buzz and at the same time find some more local cuisine. If they have better towels, I would be way more pleased and willing to give higher stars, but overall is a fair place to stay
